Lipocalin-2 Regulates Osteocyte Ferroptosis and Osteocyte-Osteoblast Crosstalk via Wnt Signaling to Control Bone Formation
2025-04-29
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p> Osteoporosis is a multifactorial disease, and emerging evidence suggests that iron overload contributes to its progression. Here, we identify Lipocalin-2 (LCN2), a cytokine secreted by bone cells with endocrine effects on other tissues, as a local regulator of osteocyte iron metabolism and a mediator of skeletal deterioration. Our findings reveal that LCN2 promotes iron accumulation,...
